I’ve spent a lot of my photographic time on these incredible little creatures through this Summer. Having them right on our back deck has given me a unique insight into their behaviours, sounds and supremely eye-catching colours. The activity has finally begun to slow down in recent weeks, I’m seeing the juvenile males less and … More Getting to know Hummingbirds

After a couple of casual minutes framing up a few shots, I was descended upon by hordes of mosquitos as I continued to make these images. I’d skipped the bug spray and that came back to “bite me” once I got setup. Lately I haven’t been outside this late in the evening, but I really … More Crescent Moon & Venus

April long weekend, the first day of the month, a Sunday April fools. You could have fooled us with the weather we saw across the day. It truly was four seasons in one day. Hail in the morning, then patches of sun, followed by dark clouds, rain, back to sun, then SNOW, sun, rain, sun … More April 1 2018 – Weather

It’s hard to believe it’s almost been a month since we decided to go for an overnight trip up to the Elfin Lakes hut for my birthday. The skies were forecast to clear around dusk and the possibility of some Aurora colours through the night was also present. Starting a 4-day weekend with this short … More Elfin Lakes Birthday Snowshoe

Considerable snowfall and cold Arctic outflow winds have made for frosty conditions, large snowbanks and sketchy driving conditions around town and along the highway. The roads are in poort shape, significant maintenance will be required come the Spring. It’s been really … More A real winter!

Squamish sees a great number of these birds who return to feast on the Salmon runs in the many converging rivers at the top of Howe Sound. I volunteer with a … More Eagle Watch – Brackendale Eagles Provincial Park. Squamish, BC

I went for a ride today to take advantage of the glorious and kind of surprising sunny-ish day! I stopped to try and capture a photo of Lukla and I before heading back out of the forest. It was a bit clunky to setup, I used the intervalometer built into the camera after finding a … More Fall Riding & awkward selfies

It was a whirl-wind weekend but lots of fun stay-cationing in our hometown. Love where you live right? BBQ and Beers after nice bike rides on some of our local favourites, beverages up above Howe Sound, Live Music, Fireworks, & Hiking all under some pretty great weather. So lucky to live here 🙂 🙂 🙂 … More Canada Day Long Weekend 2016

On the weekend we made a last minute decision to load up some gear and hike up to the 3rd peak of the chief to camp for the night. The weather was clear after several straight weekends of clouds and rain that foiled my plans to shoot night sky images. Photos below…. We could probably … More A night on the Stawamus Chief
